that thinking made more sense when leftist political views weren't taken so seriously by as many people as they are now. also, for some reason recent Left Forums are at a criminal justice-focused CUNY school instead of the private university it started out in. possibly cheaper? idk

It's totally because of cost and because CUNY Schools are public property and can't bar people from the grounds. John Jay is also pretty drat easy to commute to

"Western Communist parties" are like 60% CIA, 10% dorky academics arguing about some meaningless distinction in praxis, 10% actual insane people, and 20% students who, quite frankly, either have better things to do most of the time or are becoming one of those above dorky academics.

Silent white light filled the world. And the righteous and unrighteous alike were consumed in that holy fire.
Donald trump is the most meme-able human who has ever lived, and no amount of cummies or referring to politicians as "Dad" is going to match his meme power. So maybe the left should try and maintain its dignity instead of playing his moronic game
